Description of the Related Art As is well known, cameras can be broadly classified into 35 mm single-lens reflex cameras, which are currently most widely used, and so-called large format cameras such as technical cameras and view cameras. The 35mm single-lens reflex camera is smaller than a large-format camera, is easy to use, and can be easily operated by an amateur. Therefore, it has become the mainstream at least for the general public other than those who specialize in special photography. ing. On the other hand, the large-format camera does not have functions such as an automatic exposure and an automatic focus (auto-focus) like a single-lens reflex camera. Or, it has an extremely large area of 13 times, so that there is a great difference in sharp depiction power, gradation, or color development when extended from the difference in the amount of information that can be recorded on the photographic film.

[0003] The configuration of such a large format camera will be schematically described below. A camera back in which a film is fixed to one end of a rail, and a knob or the like attached to the other end of the rail are rotated to rotate the rail. And a bellows formed by connecting the camera back and the photographing lens. The photographing lens includes a so-called tilt and rise. Also, tilting operations called fall, swing, and shift are enabled. Here, the tilt refers to an operation of tilting the photographing lens back and forth, and the rise or fall refers to an operation of moving the photographing lens vertically and vertically. Also, a swing refers to an operation of tilting the photographing lens left and right, and a shift refers to an operation of moving the photographing lens parallel to the left and right. Because such tilt can be used, the large format camera
It is possible to focus on the entire subject in the distance from the subject in front, and shoot without distortion even in tall buildings such as mountains and buildings, and it is clearer and more powerful than a compact 35 mm single-lens reflex camera Can be taken.
